4. How to start and stop charging

Electrical systems or devices must be checked by the installer of the system before commissioning and

switching on the unit for the first time.

Follow these steps to charge:

1. Check that the charging station is ready for use with the LED and button in green. See next section on Indicators and

User interfaces.

2. Hold the cable connector of the EV charging station and plug it to the appropriate car socket.

3. If the charging station is equipped with a RFID reader place the RFID card close to the reader to authenticate yourself.

If the card is recognized, the button indicator displays a blue light during the charge, the LED starts flashing blue and

after it shows the level of state of charge (see Figure 4).

If the CHAdeMO plug is used, this is mandatory for the user to select the plug on the screen. Refer to the next sections.

If the card is not authorized, the charge will not start, and a red indication is displayed on the charging station display. See

next section Indicators and User interfaces.

If the charging cable is disconnected from the car and there is no power consumption within two minutes, the user is

automatically deauthenticated.

Figure 4. Where to place the RFID card on the charging station for user authentication

While your vehicle is charging, the charging station display shows the LED and button as charging with a breathing blue

light. See next section Indicators and User interfaces.

When the battery is fully charged, the charging station display shows the LED and button in a steady blue light as fully

charged. See next section Indicators and User interfaces.

4. To stop charging, unplug the connector from your vehicle. Usually, the connector must be released from inside your

vehicle rst. See the instruction manual of your vehicle.

7. Maintenance

It is mandatory to install and maintain the units with the latest system updates to enable new features and bug

fixes, or the guarantee conditions may be voided.

For units that are online, this must be done via the Eaton Charging network manager software platform.

Please refer to the Eaton Charging network manager user manual, available on www.eaton.com, for further

details. For units that are offline, please contact your Eaton service representative.

Installation, commissioning, maintenance or retrofitting of the charging station must be performed by qualified

and authorized electricians who are responsible for complying with existing standards and local installation

regulations.

Before starting connection operations, make sure that the external AC-line main switch is disconnected, and

circuit breakers are open.

Any operation requiring the opening of the housing of the EV charger can lead to electric shock hazards.

In case the unit shows a failure and the emergency stop button is pushed, check the integrity of the unit,

cables and connectors before starting the maintenance process.

The opening of the EV charger as well as any configuration changes must be carried out by a qualified

electrician in accordance with the local safety and electrical regulations and laws.

Before carrying out any maintenance on the unit, disconnect the unit from the power supply and wait at least

ten minutes to allow its components to cool down and any static electricity storage devices to discharge.

The enclosure could overheat during its operation or be heated by direct sunlight, and it can cause burns by

contact. To avoid burns, please use suitable PPE or wait for the equipment to cool down before accessing it.

7.1 How to put the unit as out of order

The xChargeIn DC 22 can be set as out of order in two ways:

1. On-site method: Press the emergency push button.

2. Remote method: Access the Eaton Charging network manager and set the unit as out of order.

7.2 Station updates

Check the filters on a yearly basis to ensure that they are not obstructed, and they work properly.

In case of obstruction, filters need to be replaced as soon as possible and Eaton recommends not to use the

unit and wait for the replacement of the filters.

Before starting any operation, please contact your Eaton service representative.

7.3 Cleaning or replacing lters

When the charging station reaches the end of its service life, the end user should contact a professional installer for

disposal instructions. Please refer to www.eaton.com/recycling for further details.

7.4 Disposal

The EU Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) (Directive 2012/19/EU) establishes

common rules on the management of electrical and electronic equipment and minimize its impact — from

design until disposal — on the environment. As a manufacturer of electrical and electronic equipment, Eaton

actively supports the requirements of the WEEE Directive.

In compliance with the EU standard EN 50419 for marking of electrical and electronic equipment, we include

the crossed-out wheeled bin symbol on our products. This symbol alerts users that these products should be

recycled in accordance with local environmental regulations and not discarded with household waste. When

end users recycle WEEE they are helping to ensure that they are neither incinerated nor sent to landfills,

minimizing potential negative impact on human health and the environment.

Any device that is no longer needed must therefore be returned to the distributor or disposed to an authorized

collection and recycling center in the area. Eaton encourages all its customers and end users to make

responsible decisions when it comes to disposing products.

Eaton is not responsible for the transportation from the end user’s building to the recycling center.
